Healthcare professionals spend long hours on their feet, moving between wards, operation theatres, and emergency rooms. Choosing the right scrub set matters — but what you wear underneath makes just as much difference to your comfort throughout the day.

The Basics

What Is an Underscrub?

An underscrub is a lightweight base layer worn underneath your scrub top. Unlike a regular T-shirt, it's designed specifically for healthcare professionals — a close, flexible fit that moves naturally with your body, regulates temperature, manages moisture, and adds coverage during long working hours.

Whether you're a medical student on clinical postings, a resident managing overnight shifts, or a nurse constantly on the move, an underscrub adds another level of comfort to your daily routine.

Why It Works

Why Fabric Makes All the Difference

Supermedic Underscrubs are made from a premium blend of 90% Viscose and 10% Lycra, chosen for softness, flexibility, and breathability — comfortable on its own, and virtually invisible beneath your scrub top.

One Underscrub, Every Season

Winter Wear

Air-conditioned wards, early rounds, and overnight shifts can feel colder than expected. A long-sleeve underscrub adds warmth without bulk, giving full-arm coverage while keeping the flexibility patient care demands.

Summer Wear

A breathable underscrub doesn't trap heat — it manages perspiration, keeping skin more comfortable through physically demanding shifts, while reducing friction between skin and scrub top.

Getting It Right

Finding the Right Fit

An underscrub should sit close to the body without feeling restrictive. A fitted base layer moves naturally and sits smoothly beneath your scrub top — an oversized one just adds bulk and reduces comfort.

Supermedic Underscrubs are available for both men and women, sizes XS to 4XL. For the best result, order by your body measurements rather than your usual T-shirt size.
